Let's remember that in the first match of the group stage, 'U' debuted with a victory in Argentine lands by defeating Gimnasia 1-0. Then, in the second match, they drew 2-2 with Goiás at the Monumental de Ate and closed the first round with a 2-0 victory over Santa Fe at home.
As can be seen, the merengue squad is undefeated so far in the championship, accumulating two wins and one draw, which has earned them sports respect even in a competitive country like Brazil.
"Regarding Universitario, everyone's view here is that it is the best team in Group G at the moment. We were winning 2-0 in Lima and ended up drawing 2-2," said a Brazilian journalist in a conversation with GOLPERU.
